INTROduCTION
The Bluetooth technology enables voice and data to be sent via a short-distance radio link. It allows several electronic devices to communicate with each other, particularly
phones and hands-free kits. Parrot is drawing on its long years of experience in signal processing and voice recognition technology to offer a hands-free kit with superior audio
quality during calls. The Parrot MK6100 is using the double microphone and the new beamforming technology which allows for greater call quality and improved noise reduction.
You can navigate through the menus on your Parrot MK6100 using the remote controls. The Parrot MK6100 comes with a detachable screen, meaning that you can take it with you
when you leave your vehicle.
With the Parrot MK6100, you will be able to make phone calls from your car while keeping your hands on the wheel. Combined with the voice recognition feature, the text-to-
speech function (automatic conversion of contact names into speech) gives you direct access to your phonebook from the Parrot MK6100. The Parrot MK6100 also lets you receive
calls on a Bluetooth headset to make sure of the confidentiality of your calls. You can also use the streaming audio function on your hands-free kit to listen to the music files on
your phone, PDA or audio player over your vehicle’s speakers (if your phone, PDA or audio player supports the streaming audio function). It acts as a real extension of your mobile
phone.

uSING FOR ThE FIRST TIME
INSTAllING ThE PARROT MK6100
Prior to fix the hands-free kit’s different components inside the car,
connect the installation cables and the screen cable to the electronic
control unit.
Remove the original connectors from your vehicle’s audio system.
The cables supplied with the kit feature ISO connectors and two pairs
of line-out jacks. The line-out jacks can be used if your audio system
features this option (use of an amplifier). Several set-ups are therefore
possible, depending on the type of car stereo and your vehicle:
Car Stereo With an iSo ConneCtor (reFer to the FolloWing Diagram)
• Connect the male connectors of the hands-free kit to the car stereo.
• Join the vehicle’s audio and power supply cables to the female
connectors of the Parrot MK6100.
• On the installation cable, connect the free yellow wire to one
of the audio system’s corresponding mute-in jacks if available
(mute in 1, mute in 2 or mute in 3).
Note: the mute function is used to silence the sound from
your car stereo to make way for a call. The choice of the
mute-in jack depends on your car stereo’s configuration.

Car Stereo With line-in jaCkS (reFer to the FolloWing Diagram)
• Use this type of connection by wiring a line-out jack (brown & white wire or red & black wire) to your car stereo’s line-in jack.
• Using the two pairs of line-out jacks will enable you to take advantage of the streaming audio function in stereo over your vehicle’s speakers.
• On the installation cable, connect the free yellow wire to one of the audio system’s corresponding mute-in jacks if available (mute in 1, mute in 2 or mute in 3).
Note: the mute function is used to silence the sound from your car stereo to make way for a call. The choice of the mute-in jack
depends on your car stereo’s configuration.
Note: with this type of set-up, the original connectors of your vehicle’s audio system need not be removed.

Car Stereo Without iSo ConneCtorS
• To simplify the wiring procedure, you will need to purchase an ISO adapter cable.
• Refer to the range of ISO adapters on our website: www.parrot.com
inStalling the kit’S poWer Cable
• Refer to your car stereo’s wiring diagram.
• The red wire of the kit’s cable must correspond to the constant +12V supply,
the orange wire to the ignition +12V and the black wire to ground.
• Check that the orange wire is not connected to the constant +12V supply, as
you could run down the vehicle’s battery, preventing your hands-free kit from
operating correctly.
• On some vehicles, the red and orange power supply wires may need to be
reversed. This can easily be done by reversing the two fuse holders on the Parrot
MK6100 installation cable.
Note: on some vehicles, there is no ignition +12V on the vehicle’s connectors.
You must therefore connect the orange power supply wire to the fuse box or
another ignition power source.
CheCking the Wiring
• When you switch off your vehicle’s ignition, you should see «Goodbye» on the
Parrot MK6100 screen.
Otherwise, the ignition +12V and the constant +12V supply have been reversed. In
this case, reverse the two fuse holders on the kit’s power supply lead.
Choose the place for the control screen inside your vehicle. We would advise you to
fit it in the centre of the dashboard or near you. You can place the wireless controls
either on the dashboard or the steering wheel. Ensure that you place them within
easy reach.
IMPORTANT: if you place them on the steering wheel, make sure that they are securely
attached, so that they do not move when you are driving. Do not install the controls
on the outside of the steering wheel, so that they do not get in the way when driving.
inStalling the parrot mk6100 SCreen
There are two different ways to install the
Parrot MK6100 screen.
The first way lets you place the screen against
the dashboard.
• Stick the double-sided tape to the flat side
of the connector of the screen’s cable and
then fix against the dashboard.
• Then insert the screen into its connector.
![](/img.php?id=812497&img=bgf.png)

English
The second way lets you place the Parrot MK6100 screen higher up using the bracket
supplied.
• Use the adhesive tape beneath the bracket to fix it against the dashboard.
• Stick the double-sided tape to the flat side of the connector of the screen’s cable
and then fix against the flat part of the bracket.
• Then insert the screen into its connector.
IMPORTANT: Remember to remove your screen when leaving
the vehicle to avoid tempting any would-be thieves and to prevent
prolonged exposure to sunlight.
